Food!

If you love to eat, Vegas is the place for you!

Every resort has several places to dine. Unfortunately, we couldn't hit them all :-) Be did hit a few, though.

We like to keep our breakfasts simple, mainly just oatmeal. We were able to find a little place in the food court there that had oatmeal for $1.50 a bowl...sweet! We usually got a couple of bowls of oats and split a glass of orange juice which brought the total for both of us to $5.

For people who have dietary restrictions such as ours, we recommend Maggiano''s Little Italy. We usually go to the one in Bellevue when we are home. In Vegas there is one in the Fashion Show Mall. If you have special diet needs, the Sous Chef usually comes out to talk with you and prepares something to meet those needs. Of course, if you have no special diet and can eat with reckless abandon, this is an excellent place as well. The portion sizes are huge and there probably will be leftovers which they will box up for you. The lids for the boxes have reheating instructions!

Up until this trip, my favorite fajita place was Armadillo's in Toronto (yes, Canada). Now it is Diabolo at New York, New York. We wound up there because we were handed a coupon for a free margarita. The margarita was a traditional one on the rocks, but it was very tasty. We also ordered a frozen mango margarita (not free, but worth it) which was fantastic. We do well at Mexican restaurants with our diet restrictions and this place is no exception. As you may have figured out, we ordered fajitas. They arrived quickly and were very tasty! The wait staff was friendly and service excellent. I highly recommend this place.
